Bitcoin is the greatest scam in history

in bitcoin •  7 years ago 

it’s a colossal pump-and-dump scheme, the likes of which the world has never seen. In a pump-and-dump game, promoters “pump” up the price of a security creating a speculative frenzy, then “dump” some of their holdings at artificially high prices.

And some crypto-currencies are pure frauds. Ernst & Young estimates that 10 percent of the money raised for initial coin offerings has been stolen.”

Bitcoins are accepted almost nowhere, and some cryptocurrencies nowhere at all. Even where accepted, a currency whose value can swing 10 percent or more in a single day is useless as a means of payment.

Extreme price volatility also makes bitcoin undesirable as a store of value. And the storehouses — the crypto-currency trading exchanges — are far less reliable and trustworthy than ordinary banks and brokers.

You have received a @GrumpyCat flag because you REPETITIVELY send money to buy votes from an irresponsible non-GrumpyCompliant service.

Some bots are acting irresponsibly by selling votes on posts very close to final payout. These votes are sneaky, not promotion and are most of the time placed on low value content.

Sending money to these bots is also financially supporting for-profit only posters (spammers).

To know what voting bot to use, refer to https://steembottracker.com/ and use those that have 3.5 day or less in the "Max Age" column.

@sneaky-ninja (by @michaeldavid) is reporting 6 day but is actually selling votes up until 6.4 days.

Important warning, since @sneaky-ninja has made no effort to improve in more than 4 months, it's vote will still be countered even should he improve his Max Age setting.

Bitcoin is a revolution. The genesis of a new age filled with CryptoCurrencies. This new trust-less age brings about so many possibilities and frees to people emotionally, monetarily and physically.

I have never been more excited for the future.

Sorry, jobs are the greatest scam in history 😂

Word, and the Govern-mind Tax funded Military Industrial Complex is the biggest ponzi in history 😂

Ma man. Lol. I agree 100% though

This could be correct, but others might disagree entirely.

Me, I am on the fence. I agree that a currency with such large swings is unreliable, but not completely useless. And anything with value, is technically a store of value. Bitcoin included.

I own 0 bitcoin, but I do see the value in it, and other cryptocurrencies. We should always question things though...it is healthy!

It isn't that bad!

This post is terrible, bitcoin is going to blow your mind.

Criticize crypto, yet you own steem? Weird.

Bitcoin is ponzi pyramid fake scam bubble scheme :-D

Crypto is still in its infancy. There are still many developments to be made. But honestly, when large corporations and banks are taking notice, I think we should take notice too. Besides, I believe the blockchain technology behind most cryptos is what is trully innovative and revolutionary. We're already seeing lots of disruption with blockchain and smart contracts. There's only more to come.

Good to see your perspective. But then, it has changed lives, is changing lives, and at least, I'm enjoying my STEEM and SBD. Good take though. I always keep an open mind

I think it's wrong to consider this a scam. In the end, the creators and investors made a profit. I regret that I did not buy bitcoin when I found out about it.

The same arguments brought up again and again.

It reminds me of the arguments against cars early on. They were dirty, messy, and the roads weren't prepared for them. So, therefore they were doomed.

And then they got cleaner, easier, and we built new roads.

It's the same cycle over and over again. People become concerned and unwelcoming of things they don't understand. I believe once adoption starts at the higher level such as huge corporations and banks, the general public will begin to adopt it too. "Trickle down effect."
